I was wondering where people (in arts) tended to buy textbooks, if not at the Bookstore, or Amazon. So, essentially, I would love to know of websites that are affordable and ship here. I would love to have money in my bank account after next week, and I am having an impossible time finding used ones, as all the textbooks I need are less than 6 months old.

I would like to offer to help anyone here with their textbooks. I cannot make promises, but if you tell me titles or isbns I can often find electronic versions of these. I have a website I'm putting together that makes these available to download (for free), and I might as well start first with those people need. Message me if interested.

Some have mentioned Tusbe, which is a great website to find books from other students. The campus Bookstore sometimes have second hand version of the books, but you have to get them earlier as they are more popular than the new books. I also buy books from BetterWorldBooks.com, because I am getting cheap prices for books while contributing to world literacy.
